Doha: Google is seeking a major shift in its operating systems strategy, as it plans for Android to replace ChromeOS in desktop and laptop computers, according to a report published by Android Authority. The move aims to promote competition with the widely popular iPad.

According to Qatar News Agency, the project is expected to contribute to the consolidation of efforts among Google’s engineering teams, facilitating the release of new benefits at an even faster pace, and providing greater support for Android applications on various devices. Google is currently developing a new Pixel-series laptop, which is likely to run on Android instead of ChromeOS. Although details about the operating system have not been officially disclosed, the move towards Android seems imminent.

By transitioning to Android, Google hopes to offer a unified and seamless experience across various devices, which can increase the speed of launching new features and provide a better application experience on laptops and tablets. Android t
ablets currently suffer from a lack of application support compared to the iPad. This strategic shift may be an attempt by Google to narrow this gap and achieve a higher level of competition.
